AuthorTopic: You know you're a fan... (Read 138949 times)

...You have a v. mop top like haircut (even though you're a girl)...You spent time one night trying to see just how many Beatles songs you knew the lyrics to just by the name (150)...You have rules on how your Beatles pictures go up on the wall...You went through all your saved magazines (US weekly for 2 years and entertainment for a year) to find anything about the Beatles you can then you cut it all out...You're gonna get a John Lennon tatoo as soon as you go out of town...You spent hours composing Beatles ringtones for your mobile because it's too old to download them...You freak out when your teachers daughter shows you her pictures from Abbey Road (even tho no one else in your class even knows what Abbey Road is...stupid kids!)...You make it your life's mission to inform all the dumb kids, who don't know about the Beatles, about them...You nearly hit your friend when she said that George Harrison was the stupid Beatle that no one liked cause he married Yoko

...when someone says the word Beatles, everyone looks at you....you spend six months allowance on eBay buying Beatles stuff....You teach your little cousin to sing Ob La Di, Ob La Da....you use a Beatles lunchbox as a purse....everyone teases you for having a crush on an old guy (Paul) but you can't deny it!

When I told my friends I love John Lennon they give me these weird looks and go "but he's dead, how can you love someone who's dead, and even if he was alive he'd be really old! It's disgusting!" I was just like give them evil looks because its not worth the breath to yell at them for it.

...you've made friends with a 48 year old (even tho she's 32 years older than you) because she's a huge Beatles fan and she loves Ringo, plus she tells you about seeing them on TV and all, and it's v. educational...You tend to get over-emotional when talking about George or John ...you've spent loads of time trying to learn "Let It Be" on the keyboard (I'm sooo almost there lol)

I've made a few older friends

And I transposed LIB to trumpet. The melody, of course, not the chords

When you come to a Beatle forum..When everyone you know, knows you as that guy who loves the Beatles...When you consider it a sin to change the radio station when a Beatle song is on even if you're losing reception.....When you have or are considering getting a Beatle tattoo....When you have Beatle posters taking up every inch of your room, garage and office...When you reply to a post "you know you're a fan......"

When you go to LiverpoolWhen you learn to speak Scouse (http://www.pettitt.fsnet.co.uk/Scouse%20Dictionary.htm)When you listen to them everydayWhen you kiss the posters you have (I don't do it, because I don't have a lot of posters)When you scream if they're on TVWhen you cut every picture of them you see in a magazine, newspaper...

...your children will have names that is either one of the Beatles or a name from one of their songs...you want to get a Beatles tribute band for your wedding

haha, glad to see I'm an influence (I'm not sure whether it's good or bad lol)

I've been telling my mom for like months now that as soon as I have kids I'm gonna name my first song George Harrison and I want to name my daughter Prudence cause I love that song. She keeps telling me they're gonna hate me lol. *shrugs* all well

...Your teachers love you because you like the music they liked...Your math book, binder, locker, etc are covered in pictures...You write all of your English papers on the Beatles...You try to convert all of your friends to liking them...You own over 1000 pics of the Lads...You watch their music videos over and over again until you can copy their every single move...Whenever you're bored at school or work, you play one of their movies in your head...You refuse to talk to anyone who doesn't like the Beatles

I had no posters but I had the pictures on the albums. And yes, I kissed them!

If only I had gotten that album when I was a kid! I had no idea that poster existed until a few months ago! I probably couldn't have handled it though. I mean, I freaked out when I saw the Two Virgins cover! My first nudie photo.
